According to our Euromonitor, falling birth rates and increasing death rates mean that population growth in China will continue to slow over the long term. At the same time the country will age rapidly, as the population aged 65+ will increase at the fastest pace through to 2030 while the population of working age (15-64) will decline in both absolute terms and as a share of total population. In 2030, China’s median age is expected to reach 42.0 years, compared to the Asia Pacific regional…

The influence of demography is often imperceptible quarter to quarter or year to year. But over the long term it can prove decisive. For much of China's past 30 years, demography aided extraordinary growth and supported an increasingly investment-heavy economic model. In the next 10 years, demographic change will drag on growth rather than drive it, and radically reshape China's economy. The seemingly limitless supply of "surplus" rural labor, which fueled rapid urbanization and productivity gains, will begin to dry up. The working-age population, after expanding by over 400 million in the past 30 years, will contract, just as the senior population surges. China's unusually high support ratio—the number of working-age adults for each child and senior—will fall, draining the pool of savings that funds outsize investment outlays, but stabilizing consumption growth as the overall economy slows. Recent efforts to address looming demographic challenges by boosting fertility will prove too little, too late.Lead authors: Daniel Rohr and Chok Wai Lee
